"No need, we'll be back by lunch. Keep an eye on your sister," Yang Baixiang said affectionately as he stroked Erni's head. "Go back now, and your eldest sister will bring you something to eat when we return..." He hadn't eaten dinner last night and didn't have time for breakfast today either. Despite his hunger, he could only endure it, knowing his mother would never prepare anything for him to eat.
"We better hurry," Yang Peili said, somewhat impatiently.
Yang Baixiang waved to Erni and then climbed onto the mule cart.
Erni could only watch helplessly as the mule cart moved further away.
In the clinic, Yang Ruxin had already packed up. There wasn't much to pack, just a matter of wrapping up the medicine prescribed by Doctor Wang.
Yang Baixiang carried Xun Hui to the mule cart and to protect against the sun, he handed an umbrella to Yang Ruxin, asking her to hold it up while sitting on the edge of the ox cart.
